Maple Brined Bacon Covered Pork Loin

[Mike Coffman]

This brine is from Chef John on All Recipes. I brined it for a total of 6 hours.

My original idea was to do a bacon weave, covered with Super Pig.


The loin out of the brine and seasoned with Jallelujah rub.


The bacon weave ended up being too small for this 4 pound roast. So I covered the loin with 6 slices of the Super Pig
seasoned pepper bacon.


Not wanting to store the bacon for later use I decided it was time for some Pig Candy. I gave the bacon another shot of
Super Pig and put it on the Grid Iron at 275.


Pork loin on the Performer, using Frontier Lump Charcoal, no wood.


Pig candy is done and delicious!


Pork loin is done and I am going to wrap it in foil to rest while I fix some cheesy broccoli rice (Knorr package version) as a side.


Pork loin is sliced.


Here’s your plate!


Very flavorful and delicious pork loin. A lot of different flavors that melded together!

Thanks for looking at my cooking!

Man, bacon goes with everything, quite literally! And it goes especially well with other parts of the pig.

That's the first time I've seen "Pig Candy", but it's true. It is the candy bar of meats! I'll soon be cooking more of it on the grill....

Thanks for sharing!
